Helping Hands
You aren’t a Champion unless you are helping others become a Champion.
Your purpose isn’t about you; it’s about others. In order for you to be a Champion you have to be bringing others with you. A Champion will be a teacher/mentor/leader. To say it’s lonely at the top, means that you’re not at the top; you’re just alone. If you’re at the top there will be others there will you. The one’s that brought you up and the one’s you are bring up with you. A Champion isn’t afraid to reach out and help others. A Champion will teach and show what they have learned alone the way. It takes being secure in who you are to be a Champion. You’re not worried about the others being better than you because of what you have taught them. It is your purpose to make them better because of what you have taught them. Your legacy as a Champion is that you helped others become a Champion. Look around you. Are there others making the way to the top with you? It is the mark of a Champion. Are you helping others become a Champion today?

Be Blessed
When you go through disappointments, when unfair things happen, it’s easy to feel that’s clouded your future. Have a new perspective. What is blessed in your life nothing can curse. When you understand you have blessings on you, you won’t be upset because someone’s talking about you. You won’t be worried about your finances or discouraged because of a setback. You know every force that’s trying to stop you is powerless to change what is meant for your life. Life comes at us hard at times and it can be difficult to believe things are going to work out for us. However, develop the mindset of not giving up and know you can stand on the truth. |

Dark Times
We all go through things in life that we don’t understand.
The dark times in our life should be used as times to grow. We all go through tough seasons in life. It is in these tough, dark times that Champions grow and develop their skill. You have to make the decision to grow when in the dark place. That’s when your character is developed; that’s when you learn to trust, to persevere, when your mental toughness is strengthen. Take a new perspective about the dark times and discover the potential inside of you that you never knew you had as you learn about the plan for your life. As you develop your inner Champion you will have to go through the tough seasons. Learning and growing seems to come during these times. Not to say that you can’t learn during the good times. However, the lessons we learn during the dark days stay with us for the rest of our life. This is a time of being planted so that you can grow. Don’t look at it as being buried. It is time for you to grow and become the relentless Champion that you are. Are you in a dark time now?

Champion Failure
No one that has become a Champion has never failed.
The failures that you go through are what teach you what being unstoppable is about. A Champion is the person that keeps getting back up when knocked down. When people are talking about how you aren’t any good and you don’t have what it takes; you simply get back up. When no one else is believing in you; you get back up. There is no quit in a Champion. There is no give up in you. When you come back from a failed experience, a lost game, you are proving them all wrong. Not because you need to prove yourself, but because you’re a Champion. Don’t let failure define you, but let coming back from the failure define you. Be the overcoming, relentless, unstoppable Champion that you are. Failure is never final but it’s a fresh start. Are you bouncing back from a failed experience today?

Mercy
Sooner or later someone who did you wrong is going to show back up in your life. You could be bitter and angry. That’s a test. Are you holding a grudge and feeling vindictive? Or have you grown, have you come up higher, have you gotten past all the hurt to where you can show them mercy, where you can even bless your enemies? This is a test to see if you’re ready to go to a new level. We all want mercy and expect it, but before you can get it you must give it. Wake up each day with a mercy based attitude. Don’t wait until the situation happens but be ready ahead of time. Be merciful today! |

Tent Stakes
Are there some tent stakes in your life that you need to pull up so you can press forward?
Maybe you’ve stopped in a temporary place, and it’s time to keep going. Maybe you’ve gotten comfortable and decided that your dreams are never going to happen. Your health is never going to improve. I’m asking you to pack up your tent, gather up your stuff and start moving forward. You may have taken a temporary delay, but that’s okay. That didn’t stop your destiny. Today can be your new beginning. There are greater victories in front of you! Remember, the first place we lose the battle is in our own thinking. If you don’t think you can be successful, then you never will be. If you don’t think you can overcome the past, meet the right person or accomplish your dreams, then you’ll get stuck right where you are. You’ve got to change your thinking. Get rid of a negative, defeated mentality. Make room in your thinking for the new thing you are supposed to do, pull up your stakes and move on. Are you ready to break camp?

Don’t Stop Believing
From the time you need help with some area in your life. The time you are believing for this area is called “the trial of your faith.” That’s when it’s easy to get discouraged and give up on what you’re believing for. When it’s taking longer than you thought, it’s easy to talk yourself out of it and think, “I tried. I did my best. It’s just not meant to be.” No, keep working, keep believing. It may not have happened yet, but give it time and see it work out in your favor. It’s not over as long as you don’t give up. Then watch out because, suddenly, things are going to turn around. Suddenly, you’re going to be free from that addiction. Suddenly, that depression is going to be broken. Suddenly, your business is going to take off. Keep praying. Keep believing.

Who Are You With
You have to be selective with the people who you choose to spend your time. If they’re negative and critical, if they compromise and don’t have integrity, they’re feeding you the wrong things. They’re going to keep you from going to the next level. You don’t have to make a big announcement to them, but you need to spend less and less time with them. If you don’t separate yourself from the wrong people, you’ll never meet the right people. You should surround yourself with people who inspire you, challenge you, and cause you to grow. I keep hearing we will be like the five people we are around the most. I have found this to be true.

Facing Mountains
Have you been facing a mountain for so long that you feel like you are just sort of stuck there?
Maybe at one time you knew you would break that addiction. You knew you would beat that sickness. You knew you would get married. But, you’ve gone through disappointments. It didn’t happen the way you thought. It’s time to move forward. There are new levels in front of you, new opportunities, new relationships, promotions, breakthroughs. But, you’ve got to stir up your fire. You’ve got to get a vision for victory. The dreams, the promises that you’ve pushed down and thought, “Oh, it’s not going to happen. I’m too old. I don’t have the connections. I don’t know the right people,” If you will start believing again, start dreaming again, start pursuing what is in your heart. Press past the mountain and move forward into victory. Are you believing in your dream today?

Freedom
No matter how good you are, you will face disappointments.
It may be something simple like not getting a promotion you hoped for, or not closing a business deal you worked so hard on. Maybe you didn’t qualify for a house you really wanted, or maybe something more serious happened like a relationship not working out, the death of a loved one, or some kind of illness in your body. Whatever it may be, the reality is that we’re all going to suffer some setbacks. No matter what has happened, one of the main keys to overcoming disappointments is learning to let go of the past. If you feel “stuck” today, you may want to examine what you’re holding on to. Be willing let go of past disappointments by choosing forgiveness. Who hurt you? Who did you wrong? Release it. Do you need to forgive yourself? Do you need to receive forgiveness? Let go of the past so you can overcome disappointments and experience the your full purpose and destiny.There is freedom in forgetting! Have you forgiven and forgot it?
